Canada Declares Trade War with U.S. | Anchorage News

Canada and the U.S. are locked in a fiery trade war after Washington slapped 50% tariffs on Canadian goods like dairy and cement, prompting Prime Minister Mark Carney to vow dollar-for-dollar retaliation starting September 8th. Trade talks collapsed just before the tariffs took effect, with Carney blaming last-minute U.S. changes as economically unsound and declaring Canada won’t let any nation dictate its future. Meanwhile, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer accuses Canada of backing out of an already agreed deal, highlighting generous tariff cuts offered on steel and autos. President Trump added fuel to the fire on social media, calling Canada a “state without being one” and slamming Canadian tariffs on American farmers. With retaliatory tariffs targeting U.S. sectors including steel, dairy, and electronics, tensions between the two neighbors have reached boiling point.
